Hello Dr Pipes & readers,

I am the product of Immigration, I came to this country speaking only French and within 5 years, I have learn to write and speak english to a point that people would think that I have been here all my life. I however came to this country at the age of 14 and my parents migrated here legally, I love my country of birth which has a yearly GDP of $13000 US a year per person, I am now 24 and have a choice but I have learn to love my country of adoption and respect its values & opportunity that this great country have to give.

Immigration is a problem, selective immigration is the solution.

Looking at the history of Americas, we could come to the conclusion that the Americas had its dark ages. Some of the white western immigrants from Europe were very barbaric, they abuse the indigenous people of the Americas, they took advantage of them, brought diseases that didn't exist and bought souls with alcohol. They made the indigenous people sign deal when they didn't even know what they were signing or even knew what a signature signifies. The white master of the past never ask the indigenous for a VISA or working permit or the indigenous never build a wall to stop the white man from migrating to the new world. The europeans migrated to the new land for a prospect of a better future, the excitement of being in the new world and all other advantages that came with it. At a certain point, Quebec was considered a foreign prison, France use to send their bad people like theifs, prostitutes, etc...to go strieve in the new world because they didn't know what to do with them in France; As did England with Australia. Then the white man decided to import black people from Africa and have them as their domestic pet, did slavery existed in the Americas before the white man step foot here? Immigration is part of the circle of life, bad things were done by the white man in the past but that is the past, we have to learn from mistakes of humanity and move forward.

Now America is different from the past, they have evolve and they are part of this land, their forefathers might have done lots of wrongdoings but they took control of their destiny and changed the face of America, North America is not perfect but it is a model for most countries out there. Secular Rule of Law and democracy is something all countries must accept to able to move forward and achieve econimic stability. People from Europe & 1st world countries also migrate to America not because their country is poor but to achieve the American dream, something is different here, you can smell it, maybe thats why the white man long time ago migrated here in the 1st place, we all want a piece of the cake.

Here in North America, there is something called Indian Status, People of Indian Status are the aboriginals of the Americas, they were here long time ago before the time colonisation, how can we recognize the Indian Status of Canada & the USA and reject the Indian Status of the Mexicans, Guatemaltecs, etc...They were free to roam everywhere within the Americas untill the white man imposed a border on them. All aboriginals from the Americas should have a priviledge status to roam free within the whole of the Americas, they are not asking for much, not for the white man to kiss their foot for forgiveness but for equal rights and justice. Aboriginals cannot hold the today white americans accountable for what their ancestors did but they could al least make them justice. Not all people south of the border enjoys the status of Native Indian, for example Brazil has a mostly from a White Portugese background and therefore most of Brazilian doesn't qualify for an Native Indian Status.

America with its negative birth rate needs immigrants to able to sustain its economy and sustain its military manpower but they have to be selective in who gets to come in this country. We are in a day of age that we cannot identify the good muslims from the bad, Islam is going throught a phase of radicalization that no one can be safe from, the only thing we could do is to close our borders to Islam and watch it evolve from the outside. The good law abiding muslims could at any time contract the Sudden Jihad Syndrome and become a national treat to this country. Coincidence or logic, people from other faith that migrate to the USA in general do good, how many Jehovah Witness, Hindus, Buddhist, Christian, etc...have you ever heard trying to fund terrorist, becoming suicide bombers, or impose their customs on other people?

America needs to implement a system that grants acess to immigrants to come work and live in the USA on different basis. People that want to come here to cut grass, clean toilets, work restaurants, etc should be able to do so very easily as long as they pass a criminal check and has no intention of harming this country. All the 13 million illegal mexicans here are not sitting around doing nothing, they are making a living and it is the white American that gives them a paycheck, if there was no need for them, they would not be here or they would die of hunger. As long that there is a need for immigrants, let the border open, after all, south americans are good christian people that like having lots of kids, does America want to stay christian or become Amerizastan?

As for Europe, that is a different story, they are very close to the Islamic nations and therefore more vulnerable for Islamic invasion. As a peuple, Europeans has the choice of being Islamicize and remaining a free society. They have been fighting Islam since its birth and they have survived, that is something that we can to give them credit for, lots of blood was spilled for Europa to remain Christian, if only the Europeans didn't waste so much time converting non-muslims to christiany, we would not be having so much problems nowadays with Islamists. Europeans should have join forces with India & China in the beginning of the islamic expension and combat Islamists, if only that was done, today would have been brighter. That is the past and today is different, survival of the fittest, Europe either has to choose between extinction or survival. There are other nations out there like India, China, South America, Christian & Animist Africa that can help the survival of europe, again SELECTIVE immigration. The West have to accept peacefull multiculturalism and reject Islamic immigrants. All Islamic immigrants have to be deported so that new generations of muslims stops now, all Muslims that happen to be born here should be put in a database and on a strick watch list as well as converts to Islamism. The west have to buy an Islamic country so that we can deport Islamist to that country so that they dont corrupt other people, we already have enought problems with unlawful citizens and adding islamism with it does not help or at least make a separate jail for Islamist in North America. Once the West gets rid of its Islamic population, then the government could start a program of reward for its citizens that wants to have big families, Quebec use to have a program that rewards its citizens for having numerous kids, this programs works when put at use by non-islamic people so that the West and free nations continue its path toward enlighment.
